Journey with us through fantastical worlds of Asian films from the 1960s–2000s in this series of Fade In / Fade Out. From the absurd and laughable to the bizarre and downright grotesque, these stories reflect the power of the human imagination when fears and desires take the form of superstition, deities, mythical creatures and the supernatural.

The prime minister’s daughter sees a flying dragon. She rushes out of her mansion only to find a beggar who resembles the man in her dream. Despite their differences in social status, she falls in love and is determined to be with him at any cost.

Adapted from a well-known folktale, the Red-Haired Steed was first rendered in Peking and Cantonese live operas. Featuring traditional opera stunts such as hair-flinging and horsewhip-cracking, this film is a great introduction to the Teochew cinematic heritage.
